Organizing To Build the New:
A Virtual Conversation with Justice Funders Allies & Harmony Initiative Alumni
Thursday, May 15, 2025 at 9am PT | 12pm ET

Our growing network of Harmony Initiative graduates and funder organizing allies are advancing change and the Just Transition across philanthropy. Because we know this kind of work requires radical interdependence and untethered imagination, we’re hosting a discussion to share each other’s stories and spark new levels of inspiration.

On Thursday, May 15, we’re inviting you to join a much-needed conversation about some of the practices and strategies we can all use to navigate these difficult times. “Organizing to Build the New” will feature Harmony alums and fellow funder organizers. We’ll also share information about Harmony’s next cohort opportunity for anyone who is interested in applying. Please join us and share with your networks!

Summer Stargazing Party:
A virtual gathering to celebrate joy and the abundance of the season
Wednesday, June 4, 2025 at 12:30pm PT | 3:30pm ET

Imagine that it is June, the sun is shining, and you are at a picnic with your radical friends, enjoying the feel of the grass underneath you, the smell of the flowers, the warmth of the day, the sound of the birds in the trees, and the abundance of the season.

Everyone has brought a gift to share with the group and you are about to find out what each person has brought. Later in the afternoon, there will be somatic-based play for people who want to move their bodies. There will also be ample time to wander off with a small group of friends and talk about important questions like how we can move, collectively, from a sense of scarcity to a sense of abundance.

Does this seem like the kind of party you’d like to attend? If so: join Justice Funders for our Summer Stargazing Party!

Four times a year, the base building team at Justice Funders holds a special Stargazing Party for our members, prospective members, allies, and co-conspirators. These events are held around the time of the solstices and equinoxes, and are rooted in the energy of the season.

At these parties, we lift the veil between the extractive present and the regenerative future by experiencing, together, what it is like to show up as our whole selves and be held in radical, embodied, loving, transformational community. And we create a safe container in which we can explore hard questions about how we can liberate ourselves, one another, and our organizations from the constraints of the systems of extractivism under which we currently live, and work collectively to help bring about a Just Transition to a regenerative economy.

The Summer Stargazing Party will focus on joy, play honoring the gifts of the earth and each other, and embracing a spirit of abundance. Come and experience the magic of the beloved community we are building and the political home we are creating!

If you register by Monday, May 16 we will send you a special gift in the mail that you can enjoy at the event! But register anytime through Thursday, June 3. Also, please share any access needs by May 16 if possible.

Special Instructions: Come as you are, picnic wear most welcome! Bring your favorite memory of summertime.
